Or maybe it was a dinosaur after all?
Of course, everyone remembers the ancient Greek myths, the famous exploits of Hercules, one of which inspired special respect: the mighty hero - "demigod", the son of Zeus and an earthly woman, climbed into the lair of the many-headed Lernaean hydra and, not without difficulty, but defeated it (the assistant hurriedly with a torch). However, in myths, albeit slightly in a distorted form, quite real events are often described. Today scientists have almost no doubt that ancient people really saw a certain creature from which the Lernaean hydra was written off … But who was it?
On the one hand, the features of a snake are guessed in it, on the other, a dinosaur, but the first is still clearly closer. At the same time, we know that Hydra had poisonous blood as well as the ability to regenerate. And it, as it turned out several centuries ago, is possessed by some sea creatures, in particular, salamanders. Perhaps the Lernaean Hydra was a giant sea serpent that was carried to dry land by the Flood ?! And the "gods" and "demigods" fiercely fought, which is reflected in the myths, just with such monsters, trying to put the Earth in order … At that time (9-10 thousand years ago) gigantism began to fade away, but still existed.
Multi-headedness was also not something out of the ordinary for those times. Let us recall at least one more feat of Hercules - with the three-headed dog Cerberus! As a rule, dragons are always multi-headed in legends, and the image of a dinosaur is clearly guessed in them … Perhaps a hybrid dinosaur or just a rare mutant. People simply could not help but remember this! Fear and horror are powerful memory motivators …
But many-headed creatures still live today - not only in myths. Everyone knows about two-headed calves, kittens, turtles and, very symptomatically, snakes. More rarely, but three-headed specimens were also found today. That is, nature confirms the myths: it is quite possible. Today, there are not so many such creatures, but perhaps they once met more often.

And if we take into account the gigantic dimensions characteristic of the "post-Flood" individuals, then they were truly monsters, whose encounters with people, if not the last for our ancestors, then entered the legend and passed on, from mouth to mouth …
There is one more thought about this. And if all this was not in the post-Flood "Zep Tepi" - but after the "War of the Gods"? After all, it was accompanied by the use of numerous types of weapons - nuclear, genetic, biochemical, etc. And it was in the 6-7 millennium BC.
What if the consequences of these "wars" provoked a short-term surge in the emergence of such mutant monsters?..
